When I Look Up At The Stars

How many stars are there?

Billions?

Trillions, even?

There are estimates online, but no matter what, the fact is that God created each and every one.

How amazing is that?

Each and every one.

Just like He created you and me.

I can’t look up at the beautiful night sky without thinking of our Heavenly Father.

How astonishing is it that in this vast universe, blanketed by stars and galaxies too numerous to count, God’s design included a “you” and a “me”?

I hope we can always remember how much He loves us when we come to Him in prayer.

God’s Timing

We may not always understand God’s timing, or why He answers “No” sometimes.

But, we are His children, and He does hear us. He never would have sent us His Son if He didn’t love us.

Please don’t give up on God.

Pray big prayers.

Remember His past blessings in your life and don’t forget to always thank Him.

Another blessing may be just around the corner.
